Technically yesterday close opened 1226 for this week. However the mass downgrade took place when markets were close so I will have to play any longs with reports / NY opening range later. A bit early for the intrday levels...we'll see later

On the FA side, Germany is a fantastic case for economic textbooks. In the worse crisis ever, with the whole world flirting to collapse, bankd downgrade, risk, etc, etc and they manage to print fantastic unemployment numbers (thats why the small rally this morning).... While the US and UK for example keep printing and devaluing like mad and only benefiting the stock markets while unemployment ticks UP, the fiscal & monetary responsible (and even stubborn for some) Germany reduce unemployment ....


A lesson (only in that side) for the rest of the...
well "everybody" says the ECB will have to print to get the zone out of its mess and Germany says naw, homie don't play dat, but the mixture of fiscal austerity and massive unemployment/uncompetitiveness in various sunny corners is poison and sooner or later die Deutche will taste that if they don't change their tune. I know there are stark historical underpinnings to the anti-QE Weltschauanung in Germany but Angela et al will have to decide whether or not they want to be right or be broke. I sure as shit am glad I'm not in politics...

Yeap. Agree, You just defined. That's the price to pay to be in a monetary union without a fiscal one so they have to decide.

From what it seems in latest developments, Greece and Portugal are pretty much disposable. The only thing stopping that trigger is not having the legal and political framework within the EU/EZ to avoid contagion and collateral damage in the EU as a whole. Next week meeting will be telling in that sense but the details will come in march (kicking the can, one more time).

Let see if markets get distracted with December rally in stocks and give the EZ a new deadline for next quarter.

Oh yeah. People with mortgages and small business with loans will suffer the most in those countries.

Despite the noise in the mass media, the thing is like in anything else in the modern world, rich will be rich. In the case of a euro break up, the struggling economies will suffer the most while the rich and solid ones will manage to move on after the initial short term problems.

There is a misconception that the problems in these countries will be gone if they leave the Euro.

They have such a deep economic unbalances and macro problems that the solutions for them are beyond a currency or monetary policy. Corruption, lack of competitiveness, lack of innovation, sluggish economic sectors, huge public debts and public sector cost, etc ,etc etc are not solve by having the ability to print money. On the contrary, without access to credit (imagining who is going to lend to Greece in the next 40 years with Drachma as collateral) and inflation trough the rough after the initial devaluation if they leave the euro. This will put them another 25 year back in the process.

However, is also true that a Euro break up may not be catastrophic for most of the EZ solid and stable ones in the mid term. The problem is in the double dip fears that can be triggered via the banking sector....but if they manage to "solve" that part.....rich will be rich with or without the euro...

Hang on bro , price is still below my crack.

If I move forward the crack is at 3295 , if I move back a bit , the crack is at 3305.

It is that crack on my monitor from the last time I hit the thing.

Works great as a trending indi so I have not replaced the screen
